Empress Dowager Zhong didn't care, but Father-in-law Qian hesitated, and he didn't dare to speak.

Gu Fanghua's heart sank, did something happen in the capital?

Empress Dowager Zhong also noticed Father-in-law Qian's embarrassment, and regretted her carelessness just now and let Mingzhu stay. It must be a difficult thing to do, so Father-in-law Qian will hesitate.

Gu Fanghua was anxious and asked, "Father-in-law Qian, tell me quickly, what happened in the capital?" Is it Brother Rong Ling? Or Xiao Yao? ”

Seeing that he really couldn't hide it, he could only say: "Back to the princess, the poisoning of the princess last time has been found out, and the emperor sent a letter, and the slave is about to be handed over to the queen mother." ”

"Really? Show me! ”

Father-in-law Qian didn't say it, Gu Fanghua almost forgot about being poisoned last time.

Empress Dowager Zhong had already guessed in her heart, and Yuan Jingli had already interrogated her. It's just that no matter how he was interrogated, Yuan Jingli only knew about the exchange of diamond seeds for lotus seeds, and he didn't know about other arrangements.

Now that Emperor Hong Zheng can find out the truth, Empress Dowager Zhong is a little surprised.

Emperor Hong Zhengdi's letter was very brief, but it also very clearly described the cause and effect of the poisoning.

Empress Dowager Zhong was silent after seeing it, it seems that she still underestimates Yan Ruxun and Yuan Yunwen. If it weren't for Xiao Yao's cleverness this time, maybe Mingzhu would have died depressed, and everyone wouldn't have noticed it.

It's just that it was Xiao Yao who exposed this matter, although he didn't know it, he was inevitably angered by Empress Dowager Zhong.

Gu Fanghua, who had read the letter, was also silent.

"Alright, you go down."

Father-in-law Qian quietly exited the hatch, not daring to look at the faces of Empress Dowager Zhong and Princess Mingzhu.

Empress Dowager Zhong saw Gu Fanghua bow her head and be silent, a little distressed for a while. smiled: "Mingzhu, how do you think this matter should be handled?" People are in the hands of the emperor, and you can dispose of them as you want. ”

"Grandmother, why does she want me to die?"

Empress Dowager Zhong pulled Gu Fanghua over a little distressed, and pounced on her knees by her, like a well-behaved cat.

"Mingzhu, Yan Ruxun's heart is very small, and it has been suppressed by the Yue family for most of its life. also made the mother and son separate, of course I don't want to, Xiao Yao marries another daughter-in-law and comes back, so husband and wife are so affectionate. ”

"Then she didn't think about how embarrassed Xiao Yao would be now?"

Gu Fanghua felt sorry for Xiao Yao, and now Xiao Yao has to exchange her life for her own merits for filial piety, which is really not worth it.

Empress Dowager Zhong touched Gu Fanghua's head and sighed: "Xiao Yao is a man who is filial and willing to take responsibility, it is difficult for him to personally expose this matter." But the mourners will not forgive him, because things also started because of him. ”

"Grandmother, what then? Do you want to see that Xiao Yao has no title? ”

Gu Fanghua's heart was distressed, and Empress Dowager Zhong saw it all in her eyes.

"If you feel sorry for him and lose his title, then if you marry him in the future, he will be a colt in the future, and it will not be low."

Empress Dowager Zhong's ridicule made Gu Fanghua blush.

"I'll leave this matter to my grandmother. You can do whatever you want, anyway, I'm out there now, what's going on with them. ”

After speaking, Gu Fanghua snatched the door and ran down the stairs.

Empress Dowager Zhong's smile was only then retracted by three points, and after a long sigh, she wrote a reply.

Soon, Emperor Hong Zheng in the palace in the capital received a reply from the Empress Dowager Zhong.

"Rong Ling, the Queen Mother replied. The four members of the Yuan family were executed, deprived of the title of Mrs. Yanru Jingyiguo, the title of Marquis of Yingyi, temporarily placed under house arrest in the former Marquis Mansion, and thought about it behind closed doors. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong's disposition was also expected by Yan Rongling.

"Father, I didn't expect that for the sake of Mingzhu, the Queen Mother still didn't have any face at all, and she didn't leave Xiao Yao. It seems that the Queen Mother is desperate, and she means to marry Xiao Yao. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng handed the letter to the prince and asked him to do it immediately.

"Rong Ling, you have to remember that for the Queen Mother, the pearl is her weakness and her reverse scale, which must not be touched."

Yan Rongling immediately said: "Father, don't worry, the son will never dare to treat Sister Mingzhu slowly." ”

Emperor Hong Zheng didn't know what to think of, he was a little distracted, Yan Rongling suddenly got up and refilled a cup of tea for him. He said in a low voice: "Father, when the Queen Mother returned to power, did you have any reservations?" ”

"The Queen Mother is not an ordinary person, without her iron-blooded efforts to stabilize the government, there would be no stable government."

After Emperor Hong Zheng finished speaking, he said: "But she has no ambition, let alone dissent." Leaving a little hole card is also allowed by me. ”

Yan Rongling lowered his head to be taught, and stopped talking.

As soon as he deprived the title of the lord of Fuling County and the holy decree of Xiao Yao's title, there was an uproar in the capital.

The well-informed suspect that the emperor punished the Xiao family for the fake marriage contract, and the well-informed guessed that the last time Princess Mingzhu was poisoned, I am afraid it is related to this.

However, no matter what the world said, after Xiao Yao received the order, he closed the door, and others couldn't hear it.

In a blink of an eye, the Enke exam has been opened, and Ye Thirteen, who took the exam easily, really won the title of the gold list, and only waited for the final ranking after the palace exam.

In the end, even when he tried it, Ye 13 never won the Huiyuan. With the palace test, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and his confident answer also overwhelmed others. In the end, Emperor Hong Zheng was appointed as the champion of the undergraduate.

When this good news reached Gu Fanghua's ears, she had already come to Jiangning.

Jiangning is not big, but it is very rich, seven or eight small rivers run through Jiangning City, small bridges and flowing water, don't have the taste of Jiangnan water town.

Gu Fanghua sat on the canopy boat, looking at the blue sky and white clouds. On the shore, there are green tiles and white walls, occasionally a few begonias bloom out of the wall, and sometimes in the river, there are fat fish jumping out of the water to play.

"Green chrysanthemum, this place is really beautiful, no wonder my grandmother can't forget it."

Green Ju tugged for a moment, buried her head in the purple plum in various pastries, and said with a smile: "Princess, if you like, stay longer." Anyway, seeing that the weather is going to cool down, the Queen Mother is not easy to move. ”

Zimei raised her head and nodded desperately: "Princess, I want to get married." You can help me ask if the Mei family chef has a son, and I want to eat pastries for the rest of my life. ”

Gu Fanghua laughed, picked up the fishing net at hand, and swayed in the river at will.

The silver bell-like laughter reached the boat behind, and the young man standing in the bow of the boat looked at her wanton smile gently.

Gu Fanghua turned her head, waved her hand, and asked with a smile: "Cousin of the Mei family, what are we going to eat at noon?" ”

"Princess, about five miles ahead, there is a hotel, and a few signature dishes, the princess has not tasted it, you might as well try it."

Gu Fanghua called the cousin of the Mei family is the youngest son of the current head of the Mei family, named Ziran. Talented, never forgetful, at the age of sixteen, he was promoted, and he is a famous talent in Jiangnan.

It's a pity that before going to Beijing to catch the exam last year, I contracted the wind and cold, and I had no choice but to miss it. When Enke arrived in Jiangning this year, Mrs. Mei was seriously ill and could not make the trip.

Now I am glad that he is the same age and just happened to accompany Princess Mingzhu.
